The Facts Matter data portal is an online tool for data sharing in the Greater Cincinnati region. Community representatives and local leaders (such as the United Way of Greater Cincinnati) have determined what indicators best measure the well-being of the region. They use Facts Matter to display these shared measures and community-level outcomes.

Improving high school graduation rates is one of the region's community impact goals. The screen shots below show several ways Facts Matter visualizes graduation rates and similar indicator data.
